Last night was a great way to start the 2025-2026 school year. Meet the Teacher was outstanding!. It is always a special time when our school and community come together to support our kiddos!.
After Meet the Teacher, the fun continued with the Meet the Lions Pep Rally. We introduced our cheerleaders, pep squad, football players, cross country runners, band members, volleyball players, and coaches. It was awesome to see so much school spirit.
Shout out to the Drumline. You brought the energy and picked up right where you left off last year!
A big thank you to the Booster Club and Pep Squad for running the concession stand. You all did an outstanding job. Membership is growing, and we are thankful for all of your help.

A huge thank you to Mary Taylor and the Coach Wes McWhorter Memorial Fund for sponsoring staff lunch at Leverett’s Chapel for the ninth year in a row. Mary, we appreciate you more than words can say.
You have supported our school year after year—not just with lunch, but with gift cards for our teachers and the annual Wes McWhorter Scholarship. Over the past nine years, the memorial fund has raised almost $50,000, and every bit of it has gone right back into the LCISD community.
We are so thankful for your generosity, your heart, and your constant support. Thank you, Mary.
Coach, I miss you, buddy.

Today was truly something special.
Our entire LC staff had the opportunity to hear from Mr. Hal Bowman, and he delivered an unforgettable experience. His message was powerful, passionate, and deeply inspiring. He challenged us to reflect, refocus, and reignite our purpose as educators. By the time he finished speaking, there was not a dry eye in the room. I can say with confidence that my own eyes were not.
We are sincerely grateful to Mr. Bowman for making the trip to our small LC community and for sharing his passion and insight with our staff. His impact will be felt far beyond today. If you are not familiar with Mr. Hal Bowman, I encourage you to learn more about his work at www.halbowman.com. He is a nationally recognized educator and speaker who works with schools across the country to inspire culture-building and student-centered success.
I would also like to thank our School Board for supporting this experience and for allowing me to make the arrangements to bring in a speaker this impactful. Your support helps strengthen and grow the culture we are building together.
Please do not forget that Meet The Teacher is Tuesday, August 5, 2025, at 5:00 p.m., and Meet The Lions is at 6:30 p.m. I hope to see you there!

Welcome back to school!
The school does so much for us and it's our turn to help ourselves. The Varsity Football players will be hosting a Lift-A-Thon on Friday, Aug 8th after school. Each player wears more than $1000.00 worth of equipment every day, and we want to continue to have the best available for our kids. Please take the time to read the document and have one filled out for your athlete. Try to have them turned in to Coach Frost, Coach Lumpkin, or Coach Zilla by 7/31. If you need an extra day or so, please let me know. Many of the boys present today already have one in hand. If there are any questions, don't hesitate to contact me any time.
